Having your vehicle transported is a fairly straight-forward process. However, it does pay to plan and prepare. Importantly, what kind of time-frame for the vehicle transportation are you looking at? The entire process can take several days, so setting a realistic time-frame for the vehicle delivery will be beneficial to both parties & can help to ensure the job is carried out to a good standard.
There are generally two main options for vehicle delivery. The first (and often the cheapest) is for your vehicle to be driven to its destination by a vehicle transport company. Clearly the vehicle would need to be in good running order. Professional vehicle transporters will be able to drive on their own trade-plates. The second option would be for your vehicle to be transported on a trailer.

If you were to opt for a trailer service, the type of trailer to be used will have an impact on the level of service received, as well as the final price. Single-vehicle trailers are often used for urgent vehicle transportation uk; accordingly however, as only one vehicle is moved at a time, the cost tends to be higher. Multi-car trailers can transport several cars at once, the delivery service will be slower but you can expect a lower price.
Now that you have established the type of service you need, you will need to carefully pick a vehicle transportation firm. This is where Shiply really helps out. Shiply uses a reverse auction format. Using our vehicle movements list form, users can easily enter moving details, including the vehicle type, model and the car collection and delivery postcodes.

When a vehicle delivery company bids on your listing you will be able to check their levels of insurance and other company details. Importantly, you will be able to check their feedback score. Previous users who have used the transport provider leave feedback, which can either be positive, negative or neutral. Alongside that rating will be a written statement of the service they received. This makes it a lot easier to judge a good vehicle delivery company. In addition you can look into what type of vehicle they primarily deliver. If you are moving a tractor for example, it would make sense to choose a vehicle transportation company that has experience moving that type of vehicle.
Prior to releasing your vehicle, you should check your chosen car transport firm's experience levels, insurance cover and authority. You should also check for any already-existing damage and document this along with time-stamped photos. Get cheap vehicle delivery - list your vehicle now - for free.
